Clapboard is a simple clipboard manager for Wayland, built in Rust. It saves a history of your clipboard usage, and lets you paste things you've copied earlier. It also lets you configure "favorite" pastes for strings you need often. For example, you can set favorites with your address, phone number, email address etc - and they'll all become just a few clicks away. It also supports files and images.

echo "something" | clapboard storeshould run whenever something is copied. If you're using Sway, just add this to your~/.config/sway/config:
exec wl-paste --watch clapboard store
exec wl-paste -p --watch clapboard store
- Optionally, bind some key to run
clapboard. I'm binding the Favorites key in Sway like this:
bindsym XF86Favorites exec clapboard
Below is the default Clapboard configuration. If you want to change it, create a similar file at ~/.config/clapboard/config.toml
launcher = [ "tofi", "--fuzzy-match=true", "--prompt-text=clap: " ]
history_size = 50

# You can add your favorite clipboard pastes here like this:
# "some key" = "some value"Clapboard was originally built in Python and later converted to Rust with the help of ChatGPT.
